By dream I mean the dreams you experience during sleep. Saying "see my dream" sounds weird, I think "experienced" would be a better word, but even then it sounds awkward.
The following example makes clear what I mean:
Dreams are boring, but weird.
You haven't seen my dreams, sweetheart. They're exciting and fun for
the most part.

As James's answer mentions, this is a bit of an abstract concept to begin with, but
You haven't dreamt my dreams.
might have the connotation that you are seeking. This implies that the "sweetheart" has never experienced first-hand in his/her own dreams what the dreamer has experienced.

"You haven't seen my dreams" is the best expression. It is a little weird, but the idea that you want to express is a little weird.
In the exact context, I'd probably just say "Not my dreams, they're exciting and fun"
In a wider sense, consider "You don't (or can't) share my dreams."
